“We met with Erwin to do a meet and greet with Jameson. Immediately felt comfortable with the home and backyard they provide for the dogs. Both him and his spouse put us at ease knowing that Jameson would be in good hands. We had to cancel due to a scheduling conflict on our end but will definitely be using his services in the future!”

“Tara is amazing!! She and her family were so loving and attentive to our Diesel! Tara took great care in making sure Diesel was comfortable and safe with her dog and another dog in her care. Her home was clean and well organized, and her sweet family was icing on the cake. The love of this family shined through in everything from their warm welcome at the meet and greet to the consistent updates and pics sent throughout the stay. I highly recommend Tara and I am sure Diesel can't wait to stay again!”


“Beauty and her family took great care of my Ace. Communication was great. Drop/off and pick-up went well. My Yorkie enjoyed himself. I look forward to rebooking on the future.”

“Our dog Reese had a great time with Mickey and his dogs. We love that Mickey has a training background and we didn't have to worry about Reese coming back with any bad behaviors. In fact, Mickey knows how to handle Reese better than we do. Another very important part to us is that Reese was hanging out with a loving family and not just kept in a crate. We will definitely board with Mickey again.”

“Kimberly was a great dog sitter for my dog (Luna). She sent updates daily with pictures. She was very thoughtful and a great care taker. I would define have her dog sit again.”

“This was our second time boarding with Rena. Her communication is great and we received regular pictures and updates. We feel comfortable leaving our Kesha with Rena and would do again.”

“Rebeca and Roman were an exemplary example of providing great service. In my experience with them, they were warm and caring about my pup. They sent photos of my girl was doing everyday and were very speedy when it came to responding back to a text, call, or adjustment with scheduling. I plan to utilize their services in the future.”

“My big furry baby Dream loves to stay with Megan. I feel at ease when we go away and she’s with Megan. I know she’s safe and cared for exceptionally. Side note: I love the photos that Megan sends me of Dream.”

“I had a emergency, checked the app and Seyla was available. He quickly responded and was flexible with drop-off and pick-up. My baby enjoyed his sleepover. Thanks again Seyla.”

“Jizelle was fantastic! This was our first time boarding Whitney using Rover (or ever for that matter) and Jizelle made everything so easy. From initial communication, to meeting her and her lovely pups at the meet and greet, all of our interactions with Jizelle confirmed that Whitney was in great hands while we were away. Jizelle was also very flexible with a last minute request to shift the drop off earlier than planned and provided us with regular photos and updates to let us know how things were going - she even braved foot high snow and ice to ensure that Whitney had adequate walks and fresh air following a once-in-a-decade snowmageddon! I 100% plan to utilize Jizelle's boarding services going forwards and would not hesitate to give her my strongest recommendation.”

“Robyn came through when I needed it! Very personable, professional and accommodating! Looking forward to establishing a long lived boarding a relationship for the very near future! ;-)”

“Alissa and her husband were AMAZING. My dog Lego has a ton of quirks and anxiety, which were easily handled. We received regular updates/photos of him having the best time with them. He clearly was settled in super quick with them. Also, we got some of the best action photos I’ve seen of him out back playing throughout the stay. Lego has some ear issues causing them to bleed in the winter some - they were very communicative and quickly bandaged him up and comforted him when it ended up happening during his stay. I’m not 100% sure he wanted to leave when it was time to go home. Would absolutely book again.”

“Scarlet is always so happy staying with Dan! She loves exploring his backyard, and hanging out with him or a daughter on the couch. Dan is also flexible and easy to work with when changes happen to your travel that you can't control. I always check with Dan first when I need boarding for my four-legged kid!”

“Stephanie was very responsive and receptive to a meet and greet before booking. I was nervous, as our dog was still recovering from surgery, but at the meet and greet, Stephanie made me feel very comfortable and was very accommodating to Sasha. She was very open to our weird schedules for drop off and pick up. We will definitely book her again!”
“Jona and Henry were absolutely fantastic with our puppy Mochi. I had provided a cheat sheet to help guide them regarding our puppy’s current schedule and temperament and Jona took the time to read it and ask questions. She provided amazing detailed updates and photos of not just our puppy but also his meals. We couldn’t have left Mochi in better hands and we will definitely be leaving him with Jona and Henry again in the future.”

“Exceeded my expectations! This dynamic duo is truly a dream team. They took very good care of my Tyson since the meet and greet! They are very communicative and will send you as little or as many updates as you can take. This was my first time away from my baby and it’s warming to find out I was the one with separation anxiety while he had a friend and a safe space to be a dog! Will DEFINITELY be using there awesome services again!”

“Chelsea was wonderful with our senior dog, Nina. She sent lots of high quality photos and frequent updates. I could tell Nina was comfortable and had a great time. Highly recommend!!”

“Cici and Nick were great with my high maintenance and anxious senior dog. They provided frequent updates and pictures and I truly appreciated the requirement of a meet and greet in public prior to being able to book. These are good people who love their animals and those they take care of.”

“Kady loves and knows animals and it really shows. She's very communicative and professional. Kady went above and beyond to help clean up after a cat having new litter issues. She handled my 4 cats with no issues. I highly recommend her for anyone with cats and multiple animals. I will absolutely use Kady again in the future.”


“Amy was absolutely amazing with our 3 fur babies!! She took wonderful care of them while we were away! I would definitely recommend her and will use her services again in the future!”


“Aleyah promptly responded to my last minute request. She’s communicative, and made sure that my cat is taken care of (Food, water and litter box). My cat loved her, I HEARD HER PURRRing on the phone!💙💚 Thank you Aleyah 😻”


“I really appreciated the quick responses and the daily pictures. The fact that M’aiq actually let her see him goes to show she is definitely a cat person. I didn’t worry about my babies once.”

“Nicole was an amazing cat sitter! She was incredibly loving, mindful, and attentive while caring for our cat. Knowing our cat was in such caring hands gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Nicole was also very flexible and easy to work with, which we truly appreciated. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”


“That is a great addition—it shows she really understands different cat personalities, from the "spicy" ones who hate grooming to the shy ones. Here is the updated review with those details included: ### Review for Liz **Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐** Liz provided incredible care for my three cats while I was away. It is always a bit stressful leaving a multi-cat household, but Liz handled everything with total professionalism and genuine care. She stayed on top of their specific needs, including: * **Medication & Maintenance:** She reliably administered medicine and kept the litter boxes spotless. Food and water were always fresh and topped off. * **Frank:** I loved the updates about her playing with him; she made sure he got plenty of exercise with his favorite laser toy! * **Rudy:** She even managed to give Rudy a good brushing—something he usually hates when I do it! She clearly has a magic touch. * **Ryan:** For my hider, Ryan, Liz took the time to find her every day just to lay eyes on her and make sure she was safe and doing okay. It’s clear Liz truly loves animals and respects their individual boundaries. I came home to happy, relaxed cats and a tidy home. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, patient sitter!”

“Morgan was FANTASTIC! I had never left my cat with anyone except my best friend and was extremely nervous about traveling for the holidays after she moved away. Morgan's expertise and care made it possible for my girl to stay in her comfort zone, and for me to be with family without severe anxiety. He communicated clearly and often, gave me great updates (and photos!), and was the perfect mix of professional and personable. He took plenty of time with her even when he came out on Christmas Day. He clearly understood cat psychology and Cleo adored him for it (I'm a little shocked because she does not typically warm up to people that quickly at all!). All in all I could not be more thrilled to have found a trustworthy source of care for my baby girl, and will definitely be using Morgan again in the future! 🧡”

“Brenna and Binx are in good hands when she stops by to see them and she’s got great availability. She actively updates you and communicates frequently if you need to know anything.”

“We just recently moved from Florida to Maryland with no family or friends around and it’s so important to find someone you can trust to care for your animals. I can say confidentially that we have found that person in Megan! I cannot recommend her enough! She has watched our dogs overnight and has even done drop in visits for our cats. We are so appreciative of her help!!”


About: Although I do not have cats of my own, I am happy to care for yours! I’ve worked as a cat volunteer at the humane society and pet sit for cats in the past. I have not administered medication to cats, but am happy to learn!
“Steven did a great job taking care of my cats. They seemed to warm up to him quickly and we're obviously very content and well cared for when I came home. I recommend his services and will use him again for future travel.”


“Romario is truly one of the best pet sitters you can find! He is incredibly knowledgeable about cats and takes great care of them. I recommend him to anyone looking for a great sitter!”


“Bri is amazing! Our cat Bandit has taken so well to her and it is a huge relief to know we can be out of town and 100% rely on Bri to take the best care of her. She‘s very thoughtful and incredibly flexible and I could not recommend her more!”

“TOP ENDORSEMENT: Pet care is Kimberly's career. This dedication & training are evident in her professional in-person demeanor and ease with animals. Kimberly sat my two male, semi-feral cats for a week and I couldn't be happier with her care. Food, water, and litterbox cleaning was EXACTLY as I asked. The aloof, don't-touch-me cat now adores her. She was even kind enough to water my money tree and stack my mail. Her expertise and depth of experience enabled me to travel completely WORRY FREE. Highly recommend!”

“Seyla is very knowledgeable and good with our dogs! We recently rescued Sherry and he was very willing to help us out when we had questions and care for her knowing she would need extra care. We trust Seyla with all three of our dogs needs and will continue to use him when we need care.”


“My dog and I just moved to a new area so I was anxious about finding someone to watch him while we get settled. Jennifer and Justin were so kind and sent me plenty of photos throughout the day. They even very kindly washed his bowl after he ate his food. My dog had an amazing time and I would trust them to watch him again”

“Jen and Louis saved the day and came through for me and my chiweenie Willar when I really needed a sitter who understands my senior pup's needs. Willar has dietary restrictions and some quirks, and Jen was attentive, followed all the instructions for Willar's routine, and she asked very thoughtful questions. Additionally, her dog Louis is so welcoming and sweet. They really helped with some transitions I'm going through and were very accommodating.”

“Jessica and Nick have been watching Sara Mae during the workday for a couple of months now. Sara Mae's DaDa died just this past April and she had to move from a nice home in Charlottesville with a big porch and yard, to live with me in a DC apartment. She is a fairly anxious dog to begin with, and as you can imagine under tremendous stress and depression the past few months, getting sick a lot and not eating, especially when I had to return to work. She went from nearly 65lbs at her healthy weight, to 45lbs in two months. Since staying with Jessica and Nick during the day during the work week, she has started to calm down, is now eating again, and putting weight back on that she had lost due to depression and stress. Jessica and Nick are quite literally life savers, and I cannot thank them enough for easing my mind about Sara Mae and being a huge part of the process of helping her get to a new, healthy, normal while I have to be at work. Your fur babies are in good hands!”

“Thank you so much for looking after my Chewy! He came back very happy and Well taken care off! I got 2 pictures of how he was doing and was told how he was when I came to pick him up. Would definitely rebook again whenever I get the chance!”

“My 13 year old Pumpkin is having a blast at Tanita and Terrence's home. I can tell Pumpkin is really enjoying being there and she'll be going back soon! Thanks for taking good care of her!”

“Adriana has been an amazing sitter for Rosie! Rosie is always excited to see her, which gives me peace of mind whenever I leave her in Adriana’s care. She is responsible, reliable, and incredibly accommodating, and I always know Rosie will be well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”


“Ann and Rick made my dog Winnie feel right at home and took great care of her during our recent very long day first visit. I received reports and photos during the day, which I very much appreciated. Even though we had done a successful meet and great beforehand and Winnie trotted into their house with only a brief look back, they felt she was a bit nervous and adjusted her day accordingly. I look forward to future bookings.”

“Kady was great with Thor. I appreciate her being available with a last minute request. She’s very flexible and reliable. I also appreciated the updates and pics. We’ll be back again!”

“Audree was so great with my babies! She is so sweet. I really appreciated the pictures and video of both dogs. This was my first time using Rover and I’m so happy I found her!!”

“We had a great experience with Roderick and his family. Since our dog is still pretty new to us, we were a little unsure how he’d do, but he warmed up to them so quickly. It was clear he was comfortable and well cared for the whole time. Roderick and his family were kind, welcoming, and treated him like one of their own. We’d definitely book with them again and highly recommend them!”

About: I had two dogs growing up (Snowball and Mocha) and in recent years, have dog sat for friends, friends, and for Rover clients. It's rewarding and super fun for me! I enjoy the long walks in my neighborhood (I live in an awesome neighborhood for that) and lots of cuddles/belly rubs with the dogs I am sitting! I work from home most of the week and have plenty of time during the day for neighborhood strolls/walks with my rover pups. I love going for walks to take a break so would take the dog out at least 3 or 4 times a day with me. My husband and I live in a 2 bedroom/2 floor condo with a balcony. The dog would have access to the first floor. We have hard wood floors, a ton of really great light and are on the 3rd floor. There are no elevators in this building. We have a ton of neighbors who have dogs, an elementary school near by with a nice track/green space, and lots of side walk space for walks.
“We needed a dog sitter for our 8 month old Coco while we had a last minute family outing. This was our first time booking a sitter and Lilian was everything we needed! She was very responsive and provided so much insight on the process. We knew Coco would be in good hands and she was! Lilian sent pic & video updates and Coco was having a great time! Thank you so much for taking care of our girl! We can't wait to use Lilian again! 🐾🩷”

“Aleyah really helped us out and very short notice. Meeko and I really appreciated her professionalism and timeliness. She will definitely be in the normal rotation of dog walker for our girl. Thank you!”

“Morgan is an excellent dog walker for my dog, Bailey. I am so happy I found someone I can trust to come and walk her. He provides excellent communication and has been a blessing to have for my dog.”

“Trina has been amazing with Nugget who is NOT a fan of walking. She has been resourceful to ensure he gets the most out of his walks. She is on time, communicative and provides a thorough report after each walk.”

“Very nice lady. Was available last minute to help me walk my dog while being sick. Yuki enjoyed it very much. He came back exhausted which helped me get more rest. Will be rebooking her❤️ Thank you Kaitlyn”

“Melissa was great. My dog doesn’t always walk well for new people and he took to her right away. She took the time to come by for a meet and greet and we were really impressed!”

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of pets primarily the most experience with dogs since I was 13 years old. I’ve cared for a variety of breeds from puppies to senior dogs. Additionally I’ve also fostered and cared for cats when friends and neighbors have been away on vacation. I’ve been lucky to also own two dogs of my own, most recently Puddles. I ensure that all pets feel safe and earn their trust through regular walks, consistent schedules for meal times, snacks and tons of playtime as well. I try to stay as active with pets as possible. Furthermore I have experience caring for senior dogs that need medications and have alternative potty methods. I am happy to provide excellent care for you and your pet at any age. I currently am a freelancer looking to change direction in my career so I have flexible availability and can be available for short notices at the moment. I can provide pet care from morning til evenings. I have experience with crate training but with Puddles I took him out on walks 2-3x a day and also let him have yard access with a secured fence 2-3x a day. Each client is different so as long as I have some basic directions I usually can adjust to each pet’s needs. I know building trust and safety for our pets is super important.

“Ican't say enough good things about karima! She is incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and always go above and beyond to make sure my dog, Bruno is well-exercised and happy. I especially love the daily updates and photos they send during the walk, which gives me so much peace of mind while I'm at work."”

About: I've had multiple pets throughout my life so far and I loved every single one. I have experience with not just dogs but with other pets like cats, turtles, fish, and birds. As of late I have been expanding my knowledge in caring for pets with medical issues or disabilities. Also I have started grooming for dogs and it has been fun if anything. I am a reliable and an active person that will care for your pets as my own . I am observant and always reading the room so you can trust me to watch over your pet. I have 6 years of experience when it comes to caring for different kinds of pets. Walking dogs, house sitting, watching cats, drop ins and cleaning pets. If you have a set of rules and restrictions I will respect and abide by those rules. Feel free to contact me anytime you need me to watch, walk or play with your dog(s). I'm energetic and athletic so you won’t have to worry about me keeping up with your pets. My priority is to ensure your pet’s safety and reassure you that they are in good hands. I look forward to working with you and your pets! I will be working a flexible part time schedule that is close to home. I have ample time for drop-in visits, house sits and walks. I am flexible when it comes to making a schedule for your pets. When I’m in a clients home, I pay good attention to the pet I am caring for, utilizing their treats, toys and even dog/cat tv to ensure your furry companion feels safe and nurtured.
About: I've had dogs in my life ever since I could walk! I have always loved furry friends and the joy that they bring. I've personally owned bully breeds, labradors/labradoodles, and shelties. I have cared for dogs as large as Mastiffs and as small as Yorkies. I currently own a friendly, loving, labradoodles named Beau! I'm currently a stay at home dog mama. My schedule is very flexible! I can help with walks, check ins, boarding in my home, and daycare in my home. I have 3 children ages 10,9,7 who share my love for furry friends. I have a labradoodle named Beau who is very friendly, playful and would be thrilled for some playmates!
About: Hi, I'm Val! I'm a lifelong animal lover with decades of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes (we were definitely a pet-crazy family!). My sister is a former vet tech (I have learned so much from her and she is still my #1 resource when I have to "triage" anything non-emergent), and I grew up surrounded by animals, so pet care has always felt like second nature to me. I’ve cared for senior pets, administered medications, supported animals with special needs, even raised premature puppies! I’m very attuned to the unique rhythms and cues of each animal I meet. I’m gentle, playful, and intuitive, matching energy levels and always paying attention to what a pet needs in the moment. Whether that means slow movements and soft energy or zoomies and tug-of-war, I show up in a way that helps your pet feel safe, respected, and loved. I also deeply value communication with pet parents. I’ll always ask lots of questions to understand your preferences, routines, and what makes your pet feel their best. You can count on regular photo and written updates during our time together! I’m flexible with scheduling and happy to work with pets who may require more attention on walks together due to triggers, so long as there’s no bite history and we’ve had a proper meet & greet to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. :) I'm looking forward to meeting your fur fam! I work remotely and have a flexible and self-structured schedule, so I’m thankfully able to build my days intentionally around the things that matter, including pet care! I space out my client sessions to make room for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with the animals I care for. When caring for pets in their home, I’m respectful of their space and routines, and always take the time to understand what helps them feel safe and comfortable. I read behavior cues, match energy levels, and adjust my approach, whether that means calm and slow or playful and high-energy. I ask detailed questions up front so I can follow your preferences closely, and I always keep you updated with photos and notes. Your pet’s well-being and emotional safety are my top priorities.
“Very happy with the service and our little guy seem to have a great time as well. He was so generous with his time even went as far as to bring in a heavy package of ours from outside.”

About: I’ve always had a deep love and respect for animals. From a young age, I’ve felt a special connection with all creatures, big and small. This passion has driven me to not only understand their needs but to also dedicate myself to ensuring they receive the best possible care. Whether it’s through daily walks, providing enrichment activities, or simply offering a safe and loving environment, I’m committed to giving animals the attention and compassion they deserve. I believe that every animal, just like every person, has unique needs and a personality that should be nurtured. I’m here to make sure your furry, scaly, or feathered friends are in the best hands possible. I work from home and can provide services on a flexible schedule from day and/or night daycare, walks, potty breaks and training. I also have reliable transportation for pets. I have a fenced yard, large inside area and designed space for animal care. All animals have space to enjoy and feel safe and loved.
“Tia is awesome with Ziggy. In just 1 week, Ziggy has gotten used to her coming through the door. And sits and waits for her. This has been a lifesaver for us. We will continue to have Tia around as long as she will have us.”

About: I have been around dogs since I was born. Personally, my family adopted my first puppy when I was 10. I’ve been pet sitting for neighbors, family and friends since I was around 13. Now grown with my own pup, I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby while you aren’t able. I would love to be trusted to care for your babies when you aren’t available. I currently work from home Monday and Friday, so your pet would get just as much attention as mine. We are home most weekends, where your pup will get 2 walks and play time. I have a fenced yard and one playful, yet shy at first pup. Once she warms up, it’s constant playtime and an endless amount of toys and treats to share. When we leave the house, our dog is left uncrated but we have a crate if needed.
“Nicole has been great with my dogs. I made a last minute request for dog walking and she made herself available. I appreciate that she has showed up on time and has given my dogs good quality care.”
About: I have taken care of family, friends and my own pets all my life. I am really responsible and have a love for all animals. I am very detailed oriented and I have a flexible work schedule. I can readily accessible at any time of the day to accommodate anyone. I have a large fenced in backyard which allows non caged or crated stays, where pets are allowed to play and roam off the leash

About: Hi! I’m Amy, and I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years. What started as helping friends and family has grown into something I truly love—providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all kinds. I have experience with a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, rabbits, goats, and more. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended pet sitting, I’m comfortable adapting to each animal’s unique personality, needs, and routine. For dog walking, I’ve been doing it consistently for the past 2 years and understand how important exercise, structure, and safety are. I always make sure your dog gets the attention, activity, and care they deserve. I treat every animal as if they were my own and prioritize keeping them happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are in good hands. If you’re looking for someone experienced, dependable, and truly passionate about animals—I’d love to help care for your pets! I am currently working from home and most of the time my schedule is flexible, so my weekends and most of the week is open for whatever your pets may need! We have 3 acres of property so lots of room to run around however our yard is not fenced in. We have four dogs and two of them would be more than happy to be a playmate if needed!

“We met with Erwin to do a meet and greet with Jameson. Immediately felt comfortable with the home and backyard they provide for the dogs. Both him and his spouse put us at ease knowing that Jameson would be in good hands. We had to cancel due to a scheduling conflict on our end but will definitely be using his services in the future!”

“Tara is amazing!! She and her family were so loving and attentive to our Diesel! Tara took great care in making sure Diesel was comfortable and safe with her dog and another dog in her care. Her home was clean and well organized, and her sweet family was icing on the cake. The love of this family shined through in everything from their warm welcome at the meet and greet to the consistent updates and pics sent throughout the stay. I highly recommend Tara and I am sure Diesel can't wait to stay again!”

“Our dog Reese had a great time with Mickey and his dogs. We love that Mickey has a training background and we didn't have to worry about Reese coming back with any bad behaviors. In fact, Mickey knows how to handle Reese better than we do. Another very important part to us is that Reese was hanging out with a loving family and not just kept in a crate. We will definitely board with Mickey again.”

“My big furry baby Dream loves to stay with Megan. I feel at ease when we go away and she’s with Megan. I know she’s safe and cared for exceptionally. Side note: I love the photos that Megan sends me of Dream.”

“I had a emergency, checked the app and Seyla was available. He quickly responded and was flexible with drop-off and pick-up. My baby enjoyed his sleepover. Thanks again Seyla.”

“Ruby had such a great stay with Melanie and her family! So many walks and cuddles! Melanie was super responsive, sent lots of photos, easy to communicate with and very flexible on drop off & pick up times. I would definitely like Ruby to stay with Melanie and her family again!”

“Jizelle was fantastic! This was our first time boarding Whitney using Rover (or ever for that matter) and Jizelle made everything so easy. From initial communication, to meeting her and her lovely pups at the meet and greet, all of our interactions with Jizelle confirmed that Whitney was in great hands while we were away. Jizelle was also very flexible with a last minute request to shift the drop off earlier than planned and provided us with regular photos and updates to let us know how things were going - she even braved foot high snow and ice to ensure that Whitney had adequate walks and fresh air following a once-in-a-decade snowmageddon! I 100% plan to utilize Jizelle's boarding services going forwards and would not hesitate to give her my strongest recommendation.”

“Alissa and her husband were AMAZING. My dog Lego has a ton of quirks and anxiety, which were easily handled. We received regular updates/photos of him having the best time with them. He clearly was settled in super quick with them. Also, we got some of the best action photos I’ve seen of him out back playing throughout the stay. Lego has some ear issues causing them to bleed in the winter some - they were very communicative and quickly bandaged him up and comforted him when it ended up happening during his stay. I’m not 100% sure he wanted to leave when it was time to go home. Would absolutely book again.”

“Scarlet is always so happy staying with Dan! She loves exploring his backyard, and hanging out with him or a daughter on the couch. Dan is also flexible and easy to work with when changes happen to your travel that you can't control. I always check with Dan first when I need boarding for my four-legged kid!”

“Stephanie was very responsive and receptive to a meet and greet before booking. I was nervous, as our dog was still recovering from surgery, but at the meet and greet, Stephanie made me feel very comfortable and was very accommodating to Sasha. She was very open to our weird schedules for drop off and pick up. We will definitely book her again!”
“Exceeded my expectations! This dynamic duo is truly a dream team. They took very good care of my Tyson since the meet and greet! They are very communicative and will send you as little or as many updates as you can take. This was my first time away from my baby and it’s warming to find out I was the one with separation anxiety while he had a friend and a safe space to be a dog! Will DEFINITELY be using there awesome services again!”

“Cici and Nick were great with my high maintenance and anxious senior dog. They provided frequent updates and pictures and I truly appreciated the requirement of a meet and greet in public prior to being able to book. These are good people who love their animals and those they take care of.”

“Our dog Finn just spent several days with Lilly and her family and they did a great job! Updates/pictures were sent and I knew he was being well taken care of. He came home his happy, loving self! Will definitely use Lilly again!”


“Brian was amazing to our Kona, she got daily walks throughout the day and we loved the photos and updates we would receive from Brian. Highly recommend and I would book with him again.”

“Found Melonie on Rover and first met her back in January for a meet and greet before a trip I had been planning. That trip ended up not happening, so this was actually our first time using her services. The original meet-up went so well. My dog Sky isn't very socialized and tends to be anxious around new people and places, so how quickly she took to Melonie was a great sign. This was also the first time we'd left Sky with anyone outside of family, so that mattered a lot to us. Since some time had passed, Melonie graciously offered to do another meet and greet before this booking. Sky warmed up to her right away again. This time I brought my daughter along, and she felt just as confident in Melonie as I did. We both knew Sky was in good hands. Melonie has such a calm, pleasant presence, and it clearly puts Sky at ease. She sent us daily updates with pictures throughout the stay, and Sky looked happy and relaxed in every one. We'll absolutely be booking with Melonie again in the future!”

“Carrie and Matthew were absolutely amazing! They were able to watch our pup on short notice and couldn’t have been more kind and accommodating. They were incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, sending regular updates and tons of adorable photos. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring hands. We highly recommend them and will definitely be reaching out again for any future pet-sitting needs!”


“Jim was awesome with Shelby!!! She really enjoyed her stay and had a great time, especially the long walks and the belly rubs. Would definitely recommend Jim to watch your fury friends. This was a last minute booking and the fact that he got back to me so quick with his availability, was also a plus…”

“Stacy was a wonderful choice for our dog Bella! She informed us when she was on the way, gave us updates with pictures of her at her home, and the communication was seamless! Her kids enjoyed the time with our dog as well! I highly recommend if you need a dog sitter! A+++++”

“This is the second time Taniya and Terrence watched our Yankee. We love the daily photos and updates. We felt confident and relived knowing they are caring for her. Taniya, Terrence and family go above and beyond to ensure a safe, and loving environment.Yankee came back to us happy and healthy. It is such a relief to not worry while we are away. Thank you!!!! 💙💙”
